Said it before, but I’ll say again; I honestly think we’ll have a strong push the second half of the season. We’ve found a formation that suits our players and momentum is building. Add a quality CM in Jan, plus one/two exciting wingers (as per the rumours) and we’re in a really good position...

Have I dreamt this or have we inconsistently attempted to recreate it at the start of the second half on a few occasions? The song itself is unique; as in others don’t use it and it has enough Cov links to make it a ‘Cov thing’. Wish the crowd did more than just the two lines though as it’s...

Not sure the validity of the data. But either way it’ll be another stick for the anti Simms/Wright mob I’m sure!

I appreciate it’s a risk with Southamptons offensive talent but I hope we start the same team, and even if we are tactically slightly more reserved (but not hand brake on!) we still have our most capable players on the pitch and can adapt or exploit vulnerabilities as and when they arise...

That looks incredible! I might be away that weekend, but if not I definitely fancy it.

Has anyone ran any European marathons (or half). Keen to do one next year. Been looking at the Amsterdam marathon this afternoon. Got London in four months and started to slowly get into it again. Planning to give up the booze and shit diet in Jan for a few months too (with a few exceptions...

Pissed off this was moved as I have an event I can’t miss. However I will be either finding a TV, or worst case my phone, to watch. Either way it’s a rubbish game to miss. We all think the team picks itself, but who’d have predicted the last team selection! Back to 4-3-3 with Simms for Godden...

Being pissed off by today is entirely justified, the set up, both tactically and personnel wise was horrendous and made zero sense. MR has to take stick for that. Any bed wetting or MR out narrative (subtle or otherwise) is pathetic. Same old people love the bed wet though, it’s inevitable on...

With five minutes left, I’ll be the first to say - it’s absolutely justified to be angry and annoyed at that first half and questions have to be (but won’t) be asked of MR i.e. why did you temporarily lose the plot. But, there’s absolutely no need for any bed wetting nonsense again. We aren’t...

Not got the stats but Kitching has found himself in a few 1v1 situations and has come out the ball each time.

Robins secretly hoping Sakamoto got a red then so he has an unquestionable excuse not to play him.

Definitely a pen. Fuck off Godden.

I’d like Simms on but who comes off? Can’t take a sub off so it has to be Wright who I wouldn’t take off. COH is the obvious one but who plays AM/10? Even with his subs he’s hamstrung himself.

Good to see Wright backing himself against a defender.

Assume it’s 4-2-1-3 as COH seems very close to Godden. But Wright looked narrow and Sakamoto is dropping really deep so I’m not entirely sure. Also - Simms still can’t get a game despite being a free hit. He honestly must regret coming here.

Under weaknesses you’ve put team selection.

Great goal. I’m sure our 9 men will get us back into it.

It’s actually even more frustrating we’re starting to pull a few passes together and playing a bit more in their half, as imagine if we did have our strongest team starting (I know it’s not that black and white). Shows they can be vulnerable and that intensity they started with doesn’t last 90.

And yet despite all that we just had a decent spell and COH and Ayari had two decent little exchanges. Unfortunately that will be justification for no changes until 70 mins.

We knew it from the start but the more you watch the more Ayari and COH in for Godden and Sakamoto seems an absolutely wank call. Not just their individual performances but tactically we look clueless.
